Breitenbush Hot Springs...wow! I used to tromp around there before all the tourists found it. I had an aunt and uncle who had a primitive cabin, (no indoor plumbing, no electricity) there more than 40 years ago. I'll bet that place has really changed.

"Sometimes I think that singers who really wish they had a good voice...should just find different ways of interpreting a piece. No sense in trying to imitate Plant's original version of "Black Dog" if you can't do it, but you could still perform the song in your own way."

Heck, Plant himself hasn't been able to sing it like the studio version since about '73. As a related aside - I think we can all come up with a few examples of male singers who've lost some (or alot) of their vocal range as they've gotten older, but I can't really think of any obvious female examples. I wonder if there's a physical reason for that?
